RE: Packeteer introduces plan for guaranteeing WAN application performance

I think this sounds like an interesting approach to ultimately providing better performance to the end user. Yet with the cost of bandwidth decreasing and products like Riverbed's Steelhead solution accelerating applications, I am curious to see how this will play out.

Juniper already does most of this

Juniper already does most of this on a single hardware platform. So do some of Packeteer's other competitors. Here is another Packeteer box to add to their already out of date multi-box solution. They haven't competed in Network World's last two annual accelerator contests because they know they can't compete.

Are you on Riverbed's payroll?

Everywhere I go, I see Justin plugging Riverbed, even if the article doesn't mention them. It's like clockword. If the article mentions WAN optimization, or Cisco in some way, Justin has a comment, and finds some way to throw Riverbed and "I have all the best comparison data" in there.
